Kaap die Goeie Hoop-voetpad 🥾 — Attraction in Western Cape

Kaap die Goeie Hoop-voetpad is the trail which links Cape Point to Cape of Good Hope in the Cape Point Nature Reserve.

The trail is not too difficult but has some steep sections so many breaks are recommended if you feel your fitness is not up to scratch.

The views from the trail are very rewarding and there's even a special viewing area around midpoint where you can observe ocean on both sides of the mountain trail.

A word of caution on your way down the trail: Beware of loose rocks which easily cause you to roll an ankle and it can be quite windy at certain times...

You'll encounter a wide variety of surfaces - from smooth asphalt to uneven boardwalk to scrambling up rocks - but if you're up for that, this path brings you into contact with lots of local wildlife (especially ostriches grazing by the path). It takes around 30 minutes each way, although when busy you'll need to allow extra time to let people pass at the narrowest parts. The path doesn't take you especially close to the cliff edge, but the edge is nevertheless...

Steep down and up. Not that bad due to the fact the board walk and stairs are in good shape.. amazing beach. Cool rocks to climb on and visit. Left side when looking out to see. Swimming is fun and be careful. See can be rough and not life guards...
